Joe Jonas is known for a lot of stuff. He's a talented musician, a decent actor, kind of hilarious, giving, and part of an incredibly famous family. We may need to add "photojournalist" to the nearly-endless list of cool stuff Joe Jonas is good at. He was out for a stroll through New York and managed to snag something on camera that is so New York it's not even funny. A walking Christmas Tree. In a smaller city, someone dressed up as a tree would have drawn a crowd, strange looks and maybe even some shouts. In New York, though, it was business as usual.
Joe caught a 13 second video of the "tree"just strolling along. Joe gets a thumbs up from the shrubbery as it passes him, and others in the street barely react. The tree gets a few glances as it passes people but that's about it. New Yorkers don't seem too worried about a guy in a tree suit with pants painted to look like a trunk. If anything, we appreciate the commitment.
Joe added a soundtrack and shared the video on Twitter.
How you win Christmas π ... very proud of catching this on camera https://t.co/qwm0LqXLewβ J O E J O N A S (@J O E J O N A S) 1544631320.0
We don't know who's hiding in all that foliage - but we know Twitter loves them.

New Yorkers, be ready! Apparently there's a troop of sentient Christmas Trees hidden in plain sight. They could be anywhere! Ahh, we love Christmas in New York.
